Faction Prodigy 1 Skis 2025
A more park-oriented version of the Prodigy 2, the Faction Prodigy 1 Skis are 10mm narrower and have denser Ash laminates added to the core for more strength, as well as the new Carbon Rubber Stomp Pads. A ski that you can session the park all day long on and still hang with your freeride bros for a few laps in the back bowls when the urge strikes.

Rocker Type
Rocker-Camber-Rocker – Tip Rocker: 159 = 320mm, 165 = 330mm, 171 = 340mm, 177 = 355mm, 183 = 365mm, 198 = 380mm | Camber: All Sizes = 3mm | Tail Rocker: 159 = 255mm, 165 = 265mm, 171 = 275mm, 177 = 285mm, 183 = 295mm, 189 = 300mm
Flex
Flex Rating – 7 (1 = Soft, 10 = Stiff)
Sidecut
Elliptical Sidecut – Elliptical Sidecut is made up of a longer radius underfoot and shorter radii in the tip and tail of the ski. The long radius underfoot means you can pivot faster and easier, while a shorter radius in the tip and tail result in easier turn initiation. This sidecut allows for a wide variety of turn lengths, angles and mounting positions.
Core
Poplar and Ash Wood Core
Laminates
Carbon Rubber Stomp Pad – For extra absorption on those huge hits.
Sidewalls
Full Strength Sidewall – A construction that places strips of protective material along the sides of each core, between the edge and the topsheet.
Base
Sintered UHMW Base
Edges
XL 2.5mm Edges – Fractions of a millimeter might not sound like much, but when it comes to edges, it adds up. The 2.5mm edges add an extra 25% of height to Faction's standard 2mm edge, making for a stronger and more durable ski.
Binding Compatibility
We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.

Terrain:
Big Mountain, Powder

Terrain
Big Mountain Big mountain skis are designed for charging big lines with high speeds and big airs. These skis varry in width from wide, powder-oriented skis for skiing Alaska spines to narrower, mixed condition skis for ripping the beat up headwall at your local mountain. Skis in this category tend to be on the stiffer side, often with more rocker in the tip and less in the tail. Powder These skis are for the deep days. If you like to find powder stashes at your local resort, go on backcountry missions for the freshest of fresh or heli ski trips to BC, powder skis are what you need to stay afloat. Skis in the powder category are wide and most often have some form of rocker or early rise plus a relatively soft flex. Many powder skis today are versatile enough to handle mixed conditions and harder snow.

Ability Level:
Intermediate-Advanced

Ability Level
Intermediate-Advanced Whether you’re a progressing intermediate exploring new runs and terrain, or an accomplished rider seeking new thrills, the majority of skiers and snowboarders fall into this level. Intermediate to advanced skis and snowboards may be somewhat wider or stiffer than beginner-intermediate skis and snowboards, usually with a stronger wood core and sandwich sidewall construction. Intermediate to advanced boots and bindings range from softer flexing freestyle options to stiffer choices built for stability at speed.

Rocker Type:
Rocker/Camber/Rocker
More
Rocker Type
Rocker/Camber/Rocker Rocker/Camber/Rocker skis have the playfulness and float of a rockered ski as well as the added edge hold of a cambered ski. The contact points on skis with this profile are closer towards the middle of the ski than a fully cambered ski, but still not underfoot. The cambered midsection provides a longer effective edge on hardpack, increasing edge hold and stability, while the rockered tip and tail provide floatation in deeper snow and allow the ski to initiate and release from turns easier.

Turning Radius
Medium 17-22 m radius is best for all-mountain and park & pipe.
- Core/Laminates: Wood

Tail Type:
Partial Twin Tip
More
Tail Type
Partial Twin Tip Partial twin tip skis have a tail that is turned up, but not as much as the tip. This gives you the ability to ski backwards and back out of tight spaces, but these skis are mainly designed to ski forward.

Product Details
Toe Piece
LDN Toe – Low. Direct. Neutral. These are the deign characteristics of the revolutionary new LDN Toepiece. A lower center of gravity places the binding closer to the ski for better next-to-snow feel and the wide base delivers more direct response and reaction throughout the turn. The flatter, neutral stance puts the skier in a more balanced position by preserving the natural flex and arc of the ski.
Automatic Toe Adaptation – The toe adapts automatically to your alpine normed boot height and ensures constant release values, even on worn out boots.
SCP Slider Pedal – Anti-friction system to guarantee safe release.
Extra Wide Toe Pedal – >60mm
Heel Piece
Locking Brakes – The brakes feature a smartly designed clip-in system that locks the skis together as you throw them over your shoulder, making long hauls easy!

Advanced-Expert Whether you charge the steepest lines, hit the biggest jumps in the park or carve with race-like precision, advanced to expert level skis, snowboards, boots and bindings are for the more aggressive rider. In skis and snowboards, you'll often find layers of metal, carbon or other stringers for rigidity and power, while advanced to expert level boots and bindings are usually on the stiffer side of the spectrum for rebound and precision steering.
